Join us at Duneira Estate these Winter School Holidays for our Nature Journaling for kids aged 8-13.

We will walk around the Estate and explore the treasures of the garden, picking up leaves, flowers, moss, chestnuts and putting it all in our baskets to bring back to the stables, where we will be warm and cozy by the fire. Then we will draw and paint all the treasures we discover in our own special nature journal that you can take home!
